There are 6 titles in the World Almanac Library of the Middle East Series and they will all be reviewed in the Nov/Dec 2007 issue of the AJL Newsletter. They are all acceptable, with the caveat that there are errors in them that a knowledgeable librarian or teacher will need to point out to the kids who read them. Given the sad fact that so many non-fiction series about Israel are outrageously biased, these are some of the better ones, despite their errors and omissions.
